WHITLOW ELEMENTARY LOCAL SCHOOL COUNCIL 

2024 - 2025

Local School Councils (LSC) were established as a result of Georgia's A+ Education Reform Act of 2000. This legislation required that all schools in Georgia establish Local Councils. The purpose of the LSC is to bring communities and schools closer together in a spirit of cooperation to solve difficult educational problems, improve academic achievement, provide support for teachers and administrators and bring parents into the school-based decision-making process.

The LSC is elected and is composed of teachers, parents and business representatives. Parent or guardian members make up the majority of the school council and at least two of the parents or guardians must be businesspersons.

If you are interested in serving on Whitlow Elementary's 2024-2025 Local School Council as a parent partner member, business partner member, or if you would like to nominate someone, please complete the nomination form here by Monday, July 8, 2024. Candidates will be made public on July 16th. A vote will be taken on July 30th at Whitlow Elementary School.
